How do I use a list within Switch? Switch[expr,form1,val1,form2,val2,...] evaluates expr, matches it to form i, and returns val i, if there's a match, Null otherwise. When I put in a list {form1,val1,form2,val2,...} Mathematica treats it as a single object, and for the life of me I can't strip off the curly brackets. The closest I came was with Sequence, which replaced the curly brackets with parentheses. Howard Fink fink at acf5.nyu.edu
